Results - Week 12

[clauderainsrm]

It's that time again. Saying goodbye is never fun or easy, But fortunately there are still 4 options on the Wheel for people to come back into the game. So "goodbye" might not be what it usually is!

So maybe it's a "so long and hope to see you soon!"  If nothing else, I hope you will be Home Gaming to 

marjorica 

and legal... wait, what's this

legalpad819 pulls out a medallion from her pocket.  "I'd like to play this!"  

*takes it and examines it*  I can confirm this IS an immunity idol!  She is safe from elimination!  Unlike most immunity idols though, no one else will be taking her place. 

Technically speaking, since I said  whoever receives the "
FEWEST number of votes, without being eliminated will receive the right to pick something out of Pandora's box!!! " 

That means legalpad819 will get to pick something from Pandora's box! I will let you know what has been chosen.

hot damn, last I looked I was at 8 votes and pretty sure I'd be going home. guess anything can change in the final hour of the poll D:

sorry to see majorica go, I liked her entry this week!

[marjorica]

Aw thank you!

[muchtooarrogant]

The next to the last time I looked, there were 34 votes. Then, the last time, there were 36, but some people's vote totals shifted more than 2, so I think people were either finishing up voting on partial ballots or changing their votes based on the projected outcome.

legalpad819 reaches into the box and pulls out CHEKHOV's GUN!!

Oh, this is going to be interesting.

Is that a Star Trek reference? LOL

:( I really thought majorica's entry this week was excellent! This surprises me. :(

Immunity idols! When did that happen?

Or was that a background secret spin of the wheel at some earlier point?

[marjorica]

Thank you!

I think my entry was too long tbh, but I had fun writing the stupid thing.

[bleodswean]

Sorry to see Marjorica going - for now. But your entry was so fantastic this week and hopefully you can use this time to keep writing in that ‘Verse!!!

[marjorica]

Thank you!

I have to admit, this was a fun twist. I'd honestly be a little hesitant to pick something out of Pandora's Box, though. Who knows whether it will be good or not?

[clauderainsrm]

I asked the Wheel if I was going to announce all the items in Pandora's Box. The answer was "No".

It remains on the Wheel as a possible repeat. (minus the item picked)

[roina_arwen]

Fair. I like not knowing what else might be in there!

[roina_arwen]

I’m confused. Didn’t Legalpad play her Immunity idol in week 10? Or did she have a second immunity from somewhere?

[hafnia]

She was awarded it in week 9 or 10, and hasn't been eligible for elimination before now, so it had not been used.

[roina_arwen]

Week 10 was the “submit one vote for who you want to eliminate,” email vote, and she used it then.

Maybe it works differently here, but on Survivor if you use your idol, any votes cast for you don’t count, but you don’t get the idol back if you didn’t get enough votes to have been eliminated.

[clauderainsrm]

It was a second idol.

[roina_arwen]

Thank you for clarifying.

[marjorica]

Thanks for letting me play, guys!

I will pounce on any chance to return like the proverbial bad penny.

[muchtooarrogant]

Sorry to see you go, I really liked and voted for your entry.

I do vaguely remember the second immunity idol, but someone earlier in the game also got a bye necklace or two, didn't they? Were we ever told who those previous necklaces went to?

Also, since there's not a green room up yet, I have to compose another entry with "happy" as part of the prompt? Grouchy blind man says, "NOOOOO!"

I only remember the one immunity idol back in like week 10 or thereabouts. I have absolutely zero recollection of a second immunity idol being given out. I'd totally like to have my memory refreshed, tbh.

I would also like to know what this Chekhov's Gun is. I know it as a literary term, but have no context for how it's being used here.
